I *sometimes* have the same problems, in that I get to the Title screen,
then get the hourglass, then when the screen redraws ( and I guess the
programs in the win.ini load=c:\... line start to load ) I get kicked out to
DOS. 
  I have an Agiler mouse and was told not to load the driver in DOS B4 I
started windows and let windows take care of the mouse. But changing this did
not help.
  So I nuked the load call to Change cursor in win.ini, which just
happens to change the default cursor to my cursor at about the same time
it usually kicks me out to DOS, and I haven't had any further problems 
( where's that piece of wood, damn plastic office furniture :).

Cheers
	Brenden.
